We went to visit my parents for Memorial Day weekend and got Anne's first pictures with Great-Grandpa Hannafan and Great-Great-Aunt Norma (I'm sure she loves being called "great-great"!). Anne was pretty cranky, because someone (me) forgot to put her down for her afternoon nap.

Doug took Brad to an airshow this weekend; no cameras or cell phones were allowed--they even made him throw Brad's goldfish snack away before entering! Definitely beefed up security from four years ago when he and I went together and took tons of pictures. Anyway, here's what Brad told me when he returned, along with my translation:

Thunderbirds airplane (He saw the Thunderbirds fly in their airplanes)

Airplane scared (He was scared of the airplanes)

Loud!(Because the airplanes were loud)

Daddy cover ears (So Daddy covered his ears)

Sign it for me Thunderbirds (And then the Thunderbirds signed a poster for him)

I found this recipe on epicurious.com when I was searching for German Chocolate--Doug's favorite. It's the first time I've ever caramelized milk, it turned out pretty well. Thanks for the cooking gene, Oma!

Anne has outgrown most of the pink and purple pajamas that people have given her, so we've moved on to the oodles of pajamas that Brad wore. Don't feel sorry for her, though--she still has a closetful of girly daytime clothes!

PS Looking at this picture now, the mother in me wants to grab Kelly and Ben and say, "Get off that railing--you're going to fall over!!" Probably because if it was Brad up there, he'd be climbing up and over the railing in a jiffy!

Carolyn Mahaney and her three daughters blog together on GirlTalk. You should definitely check it out. In honor of Mother's Day, they posted a clip from Funny Moms, which is hilarious. Doug and I watched it together and thoroughly enjoyed it. If you don't have time to watch the whole thing, just watch the last two songs. Have fun!
